Intra-corporate transfer permit
The intra-corporate transfer permit Netherlands (ICT permit) allows multinational companies to temporarily transfer managers, specialists and trainees to the Netherlands. The ICT scheme is intended for employees who remain employed within the same international group of companies and who are transferred to a Dutch entity for a limited period.
Immigration Services NL assists companies and international employees with ICT permit applications, extensions and residence permits for accompanying family members. By carefully preparing the application and supporting documents, unnecessary delays can often be avoided.
